  • 米

    rice is an essential part of Japanese cuisine. We believe that Japanese are made by rice. Even nowadays the consumption of rice has been dynamically dropped, we believe that to eat rice is to be in health for good. Rice also comes from our garden. We are still practicing the traditional farming method of Kakeboshi (method of drying rice stalks to harvest the grain). Thanks to the Kakeboshi, rice is more smell, tasty and moderate chewiness. We use the original rice cooker called DONABE, one of Japan’s highly-regarded traditional ceramics. You can choose white rice or brown rice for dinner or breakfast. Rich fiber and other nutrients such as vitamin B1, B2, B6 etc, contained in the brown rice.

    SOUGETSU is 25 years old with a thatched roof using kaya (grass) from Kumamoto prefecture. This is environmental well-being for earth and traditional Japanese architecture. The central axis of this house is completely open to the Mt. Yufu. You will enjoy not only the outside view of Mt. Yufu but also the unique mix of modern and classic design architecture . It is necessary to replace thatches once in a decade to maintain thatched roofs. It is nowadays hard to find thatched roof repair craftsman, but we would like to keep this tradition as many years as possible. Now we found a craftsman in the next town, Kokonoe.
